Alright... here's a snapshot - Wade's been hangin' around bars listening to, and playing, music for about a decade and change. He's lived in Toronto or Waterloo for the majority of those years with a few hiccups in between.
Musically, he most often has an acoustic guitar in hand and a mic in front of him. He'll be alone or with a few friends. The music that comes out could be considered 'alternative-folk' or any combination of pop / rock / country / jazz / blues etc.....
There's a new album in the works and some regular gigs to be played. Of course 'regular' is one of those relative terms.
Hope that answers some of the obvious questions but drop an email or comments for anything else!
Great to be friends - really appreciate your sound! We have lots of updates and a good bunch of shows being added, so stop by anytime - we'd love to hear from you!
the show was only moderately acceptable because of that smokin' hot opening act...namely thou and thy glory. i don't know if you know this, but you seem to glow like a heavenly wonderment when you're just standing around talking about girls and/or wrestling and/or wrestling with girls. and finally: you make good pudding.
Hey Wade -- thanks for the feedback. Graffiti's was a really fun set, especially since it's the first in a while. Really looking forward to more with the new disk too. Cheers,

We're not comfortable with the idea of you writing such great tunes with our drummer. Really, he drags you down, you'd be better without him. Your songs are far beyond his grasp....musically and emotionally.
He's an idiot. You're too good for him.
But keep up the awesome music! Don't let him sully your vision!
Great set the other night at The Cameron House! Hope you had good time. It was a real pleasure hearing your tunes. I have to say, I'm pretty impressed with your precision on the guitar. And thanks for your CD. It'll be cool to have it in my collection of car CD's. (I listen to a lot of music in the car.)
So, let's most definitely do it up again sometime soon, either your town or mine. :)
Thanks for the add, good tunes - if you get a chance check out the show.

several times in the last month or so my head has exploded quite violently, but never so violently as when your tunes blind me with their awesomeness. thankfully the blindness doesn't matter much after my head explodes, and when it grows back the eyes seem fine, although everything does moire when i walk past a microwave. but that's not the point. the point is, there's not enough raspberry jam in this world. and also: good music = wade benson. that's my equation for today. class dismissed. or is it?
